Sans Superellipse Pilov 2 is a very bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Quiel' by Ardyanatypes, 'Brookside JNL' and 'Ingomar JNL' by Jeff Levine, 'Havana Sunset' by Set Sail Studios, and 'Libel Suit' by Typodermic (names referenced only for comparison).

A tightly condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into squared-off bowls with softened corners, giving counters a superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, joins are crisp, and the overall rhythm is tall and compact with minimal internal whitespace. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with short ascenders/descenders and a utilitarian, engineered look that stays consistent from letters through numerals.
Best suited for headlines, titles, and short bursts of text where impact and space efficiency matter. It performs well in signage, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a condensed, high-presence voice, and can also work for UI labels or category headers when used with generous spacing.
The font reads as assertive and functional, with a strong, poster-like presence. Its compact, blocky shapes evoke industrial labeling, sports branding, and contemporary signage, projecting confidence more than friendliness.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual weight in a narrow footprint while maintaining clean, geometric consistency. The rounded-rectangle geometry suggests an intention to blend modern minimalism with a sturdy, industrial tone for display-forward applications.
The design emphasizes verticality and narrow set width, so dense text can appear dark and tightly packed. The squared bowls and rounded corners create a distinctive “machined” softness that keeps the heaviness from feeling sharp or aggressive.
